B&Q, machine mart somewhere llke that. They will certainly cut a steel bolt a lot better than a steel drill will.
Once you have drilled a hole, you could heat it up with a blow torch and use on eazy-out

Cobalt bits are pricey, but I can drill at least 75% more holes in 304Grade SS.

finally fitted naw longlife charged £30 for drilling the old bolts owt and putting a slight bit of weld on manifold as it hada small crack so over all abit pricey for what it is but well worth it!! fitted to car naw made ell ova lot of difference in power and sound PLEASED
